What Does Research Say About the Effectiveness of Psychopharmacological Treatments?
Research published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology shows that:
- Antidepressants: Have been effective in reducing depressive symptoms in cancer patients, though the choice of drug and dosage must be carefully tailored. - Anxiolytics: Are useful but must be prescribed cautiously due to the risk of dependency and interactions with other medications. - Cognitive Enhancers: Such as stimulants, show promise but require more extensive studies to confirm their efficacy and safety.
